Have I got a doozie for you today! First, let me say clarify that this is NOT an altered project. I made this from the ground up from nothing but a bunch of paper and a few pieces of foam board.
This is a project I started a few weeks ago at the Brandon Scrapbookers Convention. This is truly the most insanely huge project IÂ’ve ever done. ItÂ’s not quite what I had envisioned when I started out. IÂ’m calling it the out of control box. It just kept growing. The overall dimensions of this box is 2 feet tall x 15 inches wide. I do not have a space big enough to put it!
The framework for this took about 2 days and the embellishments took twice as long. I was really stumped when it came to embellishing this because it is just so big. After fighting with it for 3 days I set it aside for a week while I thought about what might work. In the end, this is what came out.
I have loads of detail pictures on my blog Paper Castle. This project is jam packed full of little surprises and lots of hidden details.
Thanks so much for lookin'
